Beast Evolution

Chapter 100 100 Duels

-- Beginning of volume 3--

-- Battle and Tournament Arc--

"Yes, they are rumors that they are the ones responsible for beast attacking people" the boy whispered to Ray's ear.

"I'm sure that's not true," Ray said.

"It's a rumor maybe it's not true"

"So what else?" Ray asked.

"No, no I have an appointment, I totally forgot about it, sorry I have to leave," the boy said and quickly stood up.

"Okay"

"Bye, see you next time," the boy said and raced out of the library.

'I wonder what he had to do, it must be pretty important, wait what if Alfred comes back to check on me' Ray thought.

Ray kept the map and also exited the library, but he didn't return back to Alfred's house instead he continued to the school.

Ray arrived at the school a while later, it was almost evening time and today was the first day of the duels, Ray had forgotten he would have loved to watch even though he could not participate.

Ray met Alfred near the training ground and told him he was done with his apartment.

"Nice work," Alfred said.

"Sir I have a request," Ray said.

"Okay, what is it?" Alfred asked him.

The other knights were walking towards the school gates when they saw Ray and Alfred talking, Bernardo rushed towards them because Ray was going to help him clean tomorrow.

"I want to participate in the duels," Ray said.

"No, you are still suspended," Alfred said.

"Please, I won't repeat it again" Ray shouted.

Alfred looked at him and saw that he was serious, Ray had a serious face that wouldn't accept defeat.

"What's wrong?" Bernardo asked, he and the other knights had gotten close to them.

"He wants to participate in the duels tomorrow," Alfred said.

"I've been meaning to ask, what did he do that he was suspended," Jake said.

"He disobeyed an order to stay in place, and he want on his own only to be captured," Authur said.

'I wasn't captured, I was but it was you guys that captured me' Ray said inwardly.

"It won't repeat itself, I promise," Ray said.

"Why do you want to participate in the duels so badly, I haven't seen you participate in a while," Authur said.

"I want to participate in the upcoming knight tournaments," Ray said.

"Ohh, so that's the reason," Alfred said.

"It's up to Bernardo, you are supposed to clean his apartment tomorrow," Alfred said.

"Because he did yours today, that's why you are acting this way, Alfred," Bernardo said.

"I'm going to clean and still make it in time for the duels," Ray said.

"If you can do that I have no complaints," Bernardo said.

"After you are done tomorrow, your suspension is lifted," Authur said and Ray was overjoyed.

"Thank you Sir," Ray said and raced to his room.

"That's why I like that boy, he's so energetic," Authur said.

"He has potential" Jake said.

"You said he was captured, how was he captured?" Jake asked.

"At the survival training camp," Alfred said.

"When you guys were attacked, if he was captured how did he escape?"

"I really don't know, but we captured a beast who could speak human language, he said he captured him but he didn't kill him," Authur said.

"Why didn't anyone tell me about this?" Jake said.

"We wanted to keep it a secret, it would be bad for the world to know our first year students were attacked, and one of them was captured," Bernardo said.

"Tell me about it," Jake said as they all exited the school.

Ray went straight to the dining hall, he was feeling famished after all the work he did, and after eating he went to his room.

Ray entered his room, Ivan and Leia were the only ones inside and they were mediating, they were still practicing how to control Ki and didn't even know when Ray entered.

"Seems you guys are busy," Ray said.

"Ray you are back, how was today?" Ivan asked.

"Hi," Leia said.

"Today was better, I had some spare time so I visited the library and I joining you guys in the duels tomorrow," Ray said happily.

"Really, how, is your punishment over?" Leia asked.

"I only have one left, but I'm going to make it in time for the duels tomorrow, how was the duels today," Ray asked.

"Finally, I'm one step closer," Ivan said.

"One step..."

"I'm currently at rank 51," Ivan said.

"Really that's great, what about you Leia?"

"I'm still at 2 place, I was challenged by the students at rank 6 and 7, and I challenged Gabriel and he still won," Leia said with frustration in her voice.

"Gabriel is a really good fighter, and he has mastered Ki, well not like the senior knight but he can use Ki to harden his body now to act as a shield," Ivan said.

"You guys had trained a lot these few days"

"Not much, but everyone in the swords class can sense their Ki and control it, but only Gabriel can use it to activate his cells and harden his body" Leia said.

"So that's why you guys were training?"

"Yes, we really need to learn to activate our cells or else participating in the tournament would be a waste of time, because even if we qualify we wouldn't make it pass the next round" Leia said.

"That's right" Ivan added.

"What about Sofia, where is she?" Ray asked.

"She went to train with her fellow archers, she had finally sensed her Ki" Ivan said.

"Everyone is moving forward, that's great news" Ray said.

"At least your suspension would be over tomorrow, right"

"Yes, I need to rest tomorrow is going to be stressful" Ray said.

"I'm also tired from all the dueling and training so I'm going to walk a little" Ivan said and left the room.
